I never believed in horoscopes or in the signs of the zodiac and its meaning until I came across one website that talks about love compatibility. In the office, during lunch hour, we talk about so many different things in life, and when it boils down to kids and their attitude, it always gets associated with their birth signs (thanks to Madam Bernadette!). One day, I thought, why not google it and see if my birth sign really describes me (or hubby). I was so amazed to find out how accurate every detail is...so here's an excerpt of how it talks about me and hubby...
"When the watery Cancer soul and flaming Aries soul come in romantic relationship, there are equal counts of burns and tranquility. A Cancer man is very sensitive to hurt and is sometimes offended by the careless nature of the Aries woman. An Aries woman is an impulsive and sovereign lady. She meets all the obstacles headlong and headfirst, even when she must go out of her way to find them. An Aries woman may seem inconsiderate and thoughtless but she would never hurt anyone on purpose. She really needs to mind her fiery temper as it can often cause depressive state for her Cancer man.
An Aries woman complements a Cancer man well. She has got such a great optimist approach of winning that it helps him to give up his hidden fears and move up in life even more confidently. The protectiveness and possessiveness shown by her makes him feel loved and needed enhancing his sentiments and attachment to his lady love. But the secrets kept by him can be stressful on a relationship between the two. This attitude of him can make the mind of his Aries female to wonder causing outbursts of frenzy in her nature. While he may need to deal with the outrageous and self-centered attitude of the Aries woman sometimes by reminding himself that she doesn't mean any hurt and is herself unaware of her behavior.
The Cancer male typically proves to be a prince charming to an Aries woman who admires him passionately for all the emotions and affection he has to offer to her. She is thrilled by the feeling of being courted by him who makes her feel desirable as a woman. He continues to adore her throughout life as much as he did the first time they met. But she always needs to consider the moodiness of her Cancer man and give him appropriate space when needed by him.
With the unusual blend of Fire and Water, together these two can create unbelievable miracles in their relationship."
So true! Next time (or maybe in the next hour or so), I'll feature ME! It's my blog anyway ;)

I dreamt of Papa. We were gathered around him...but I could recognize only Alex who was seated at the far end. In the scene was a single tree bearing lots of fruits of different sizes - the smallest fruit being the size of a blueberry and the biggest the size of a papaya - maybe you could find that only in heaven. He was letting us taste the little ones...I loved it! Then he asked if we wanted more. I raised my hand but instead of giving it to me he gave one the size of a green mango to Alex. He said "I'm giving this to the person who never stopped helping me...who never got tired of me." That was sweet I thought...but I really wanted to have more! :-) Then he picked the biggest one and came close to me. He said "The biggest one is for my daughter whom I really love." I began to sob and I kissed him several times on the cheek and told him "you just don't know how much I love you...but I really do...and I miss you so much"...then I woke up still with tears in my eyes and still sobbing...
There have been many recent nights when I cried myself to sleep thinking of Papa...feeling the pain of losing him...of not being able to completely show him I love him. I believe he was trying to console me...to tell me that he knew...and that it is time to let go.
I don't want to let go...I don't want the memories to fade...I don't want to forget...but maybe he wants me to...maybe it's time...

If you were to choose between keeping a friend and keeping a lover (let's assume that your friend and your lover are related...and choosing one would jeopardize your relationship with the other), who would you keep? Let's complicate it a bit more... What if friendship has already been established long before the lover was met? What if you and your friend had already gone through some of the most difficult times in your life? Would you sacrifice friendship over love?
Certainly, a difficult choice to make, yet some people would consider a friend really true only if he is able to understand that he has to be given up over a much-awaited romance. This decision could be acceptable as long as the person deciding ends up happy. Seeing a friend being loved is always worth the sacrifice - indeed a test of true friendship! But what if you're aware, or shall I say forewarned, that the romance is nothing but an act being played for the sake of convenience? Would you still chose love?
Persons blinded by infatuation never get to see things the way friends do. Sweet words mesmerize them. Promises, no matter how foolish, affirm the hope of a shared feeling. Hunger for affection overpowers the will to be logical. In the end, mind is weakened, rationality fails. The clashing of two opposing parties leaves them with not much choice but to choose one over the other.
Who would you choose?
